Composite restoration is a tooth-colored filling material used to repair damaged teeth. Unlike traditional amalgam fillings, composite restorations are designed to blend perfectly with the natural color of your teeth. This makes them an ideal choice for treating cavities, fixing chips, and improving overall tooth aesthetics. Composite fillings can be used on both front and back teeth, offering a strong and durable solution for a variety of dental concerns.
At Stafford Smiles, we understand that your smile is a key part of your confidence. That’s why we use composite restorations to deliver durable, natural-looking results. Here's why we're your best choice:

The Composite Restoration Process at Stafford Smiles
Consultation and Exam: Your journey starts with a thorough examination by Dr. Reategui to assess the condition of your teeth. He will determine if composite restoration is the right option for you.
Tooth Preparation: Once your treatment plan is set, Dr. Reategui will gently remove any decay or damaged tooth structure, preparing your tooth for the composite filling.
Composite Application: The composite material is applied in layers and shaped to perfectly match the contours of your tooth. Using advanced curing light technology, the material is hardened and polished for a smooth, natural look.
Final Touch: After the composite has set, Dr. Reategui will fine-tune the shape and texture of the restoration to ensure a perfect fit with your bite.
